The Annals of the Flame Kingdom (WN)

Kota Matsudai "craves" Ayano Okawa.

Maybe it's not love. Maybe it's not even love. Maybe it's just an awkward emotion, just wanting to be by her side and spend time with her.

Still, when she laughed at other men, talked to other men, mouthed with other men, and even overlapped her skin with other men, Haota could not suppress the emotion of insect spit running just imagining so. "Leave me alone..." Well, it's not like Kota doesn't think of it himself, but I can't stand to put it aside there. Or maybe this emotion is just a 'lust for exclusivity', but there is no doubt that love is at the end of the desire to monopolize the other person in the first place, and in the sense that said, this emotion of Hota is definitely 'love' and 'love'... I am extremely rude to my past girlfriends, but it was also the 'first love' that Hota experiences for the first time.

"... what shall we do"

Right now, in his own room, Hota was worried about it, yeah, with his phone gripped. If you run your eyes on the clock properly, the short needle has already crossed the '12'. By the way, it was just before ten o'clock that Hota began to worry. For more than two hours, it will be a calculation that kept bothering me with my phone in my hand. Well, when I say what's bothering Hota.

"... what an email to send"

This is it. "Junior high! 'I'm going to put in a penetration,' but I also want you to take into account Hota's feelings.

Basically, Kota's self-esteem is terribly low. "I'm no big deal," I mean it more than anyone, it's even a bit of a rare race. People who say that don't crave a lot in the first place. Because I know it's never easy to get a sole where I've reached out to myself, and I hate setbacks that I can't get. Or 'I'm no big deal. So even if you don't get it, that's natural,' it's also a self-defense instinct aimed at softening the shock you didn't get with the deception, but the details give way to psychology.

Whatever you want to say, such a 'frightening' Kota has never done anything to say 'confession' himself. As you know, Kouta, who has lived with constant effort, repetition and experience as food, is extremely vulnerable to what he has never experienced. In other words, Kota is totally involved in a major event called "The First Confession" that this elementary and secondary school student will attend. Plus.

"... at all, I can't imagine myself going clever"

The other party, Ayano, also applauds it. Although it is now time to talk to each other equally and tell jokes, the other is that "Ayano Okawa". A "real" talented woman who manipulated four languages, graduated from Tohoku University and was also assigned to prestigious stores at Sumitomo Bank. In addition, his father was a foreign affairs bureaucrat, and his mother's home was formerly Chinese. I'm not talking about the moon and the spoon. There is no difference between Kota and Ayano, even though Maki's base of "economic stability" works in the same bank and is in the same period.

"... after all, tomorrow - let's!

Like I gave up, where I tried to throw my phone in bed, my phone rang. When I rushed to confirm the incoming call, the name shown on the display was.

"... I'm not ready..."

"Ayano Ogawa," his mind jumped just a little, feeling the weight of his mind more than that, and Kota pressed the call button.

"... Hello?

"Ah, hello, Kota? Me. Ayano '

"I know because there's a name on the display. What are you doing here?

……

"Ayano?"

"Were you asleep?

"... what? Why?"

"No, I don't think I'm in the mood... sorry, hang up"

Kouta's heart bounced loudly on that voice that seemed just a little sorry, and still seemed lonely, and remained its impulse.

"So, it's okay! Don't sleep at all. I'll tell you!

- He said something weird.

"... what are you talking about?

"Yes, no, no. What are you, and you don't know? It's fashionable now, I say! Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, Uncle!"

'... ok. Kota, you must be tired. Sorry, call me late. Get some rest?

"Yes, no, wait a minute............ Phew. It's okay, I'm calm."

I still desperately hold down my dodgy and May flying heart and take one deep breath.

'... work, are you busy?

"No... well, busy is busy"

'Yes... body, are you okay? Kota always brings her work alone. "

"... what? Are you worried about me?

'What? You bet. I'm worried. "

It's not a big deal, it's a common conversation.

Really, really, trivial, such a conversation where synchronization worries about synchronization.

"... Mr.Kikyu. Be careful."

Because - the more I want to jump up and scream, the happier I am.

"... so? What business?

'Oh, yeah, yeah! Good luck with the party, because you crumbled along the way, and I'm an incomplete combustion. "

"... Whose fault do you think it is, you scapontan"

"It's up to you to blame for your weak alcohol. That's what I said! Keep your plans open this Friday!

"... you're drinking again. You're gonna bankrupt me."

You say, "It's okay, but you say," I'll pay for it. "Well, this time it's my luxury... you don't like it, do you?

"... a guy who's luxurious to girls doesn't look good, does he?

'I care too much, you narcissist. Well, you invited me out this time, so let's go with a split. Um... plans, okay?

"Be clear whether you're strong or weak. Keep it open! Tell me what."

"Well... if it bothers you, I don't like it."

- You invited me. That's not annoying, is it? And how easy it would be to say that. With that in mind, Kota continues his words.

"... I have nothing planned for this Friday. I'll leave it open... at the usual place, okay?

"Really? Yay! Yeah! It's good in my usual place!

- Don't look so happy, you'll expect, and Hota keeps on saying the words, wondering how good it would be if we could have a relationship that doesn't have to think so.

"Be happy... you missed me so much drinking?

"Huh? I'm glad you decided. A drink with Kota, I like it. '

- Don't say 'like' or anything, even I'm having a drink with you, awesome. I'm looking forward to it, and Hota keeps on saying the words, wondering how good it would be if I could say it without any lighting or cowardice.

"Yes, sir. See you Friday."

"Yes! Good night, Kota!

- Hey, Ayano. I really love you.

"Oh, good night."

There's no way he could say that, and Kota hung up.

"... no, this"

If it was a comic strip, his eyes would turn and he would remain in that state, and Kota released himself to the bed. My heart is bugging about a May fly. I sweat all over my body as if after running a full marathon, even though it's just a few minutes of phone calls to tell me what I need to do, and I'm not half weak. If this fatigue is going to continue...

"... fall. heart attack or overworked and definitely confident of falling"

What pitiful confidence. Still, so much fatigue is hard to exhaust in the brush tongue. I will continue to do this - every time Ayano calls, it seems that I feel this way, but I don't have a body.

"... oh, no more, damn it! I can't help worrying! Anyway, I say! Tell him to hang out with me, and I'll get the answer! For better or worse, I don't care how it turns out, hit it and smash it...... I hate to ru it, but, anyway, don't tell me!

Almost. I'm almost tired of thinking about it, and most importantly, this mental state is very bad. On Friday, in an attempt to hit Ayano with his honest feelings, Kota wears a futon from his head and enters the bedtime system. Like the Book of Night, he slowly stopped thinking without resisting the falling upper lid, and Hota traveled to the world of his dreams.

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇

"... you know, Matsuyo?

"Yes?"

"No... what, I'm glad you work so hard as a superior... that's too much for a boulder, isn't it?

In the words of Deputy Director Nakatomi, which took from overhead, Haota raised the gaze he was pointing at the computer, and had the face and eyes of Nakatomi, who was in trouble.

"... anything?

"Yeah, I did tell you, 'Are you going to lecture the East Cherry Blossom Girls next semester?' I heard that... but I'm not thinking of leaving you as my own instructor, am I? You are a resident and you should use your powers to develop your residence... well, that's it. I didn't mean to tell you to plan a lecture up to five years away. Since when did your princess amulet become your job?

Kota looks at the screen in a panic to Nakatomi like that. As Nakatomi put it, there was certainly an outline of the lecture plan dated five years away.

"... I didn't realize"

"... ha. Well, I wouldn't say anything if I'd done the rest of my job properly... you? If you've been working like this for five years, you're definitely moving left, right? You don't like that, do you?

"No, nothing... I'm going to do everything I can anywhere"

"Oh, you're right. You're that kind of guy, for better or worse. Okay? When it comes to comprehensive planning for overnight stays, it's a bit of a known name. Executives who are said to excel in living in Vietnam… For example, in careers admired by execs such as Marunouchi, part of sales, Chuo Osaka, and the Tokai Sales Headquarters, it's not a ticket that can be given inside if you want. Be a little more aware of that, you too."

I've never heard of it, it's nothing like being told, 'It's a left transition', sighing like I was stunned by what kind of guy, sitting back on an empty chair, staring into Kota's eyes.

"... what is it, peeking into people's eyes? Disgusting."

"... you're starting to say, you too. I was cute when I was just here. Then I'll go straight to the point. We're talking about a transfer, Matsuyo."

For a moment, I said, 'What?' I guess I found myself looking. The end of Zhongtong's mouth finally distorted to.

"Don't worry, I'm not kicking us out. We're talking about changing the line."

'Line' is one of the hidden words used within the headquarters of Sumitomo Bank. Replace it with the person in charge.

"The chief? He talks about 'I want to try to work you out on the finance line'. The Undersecretary of Finance is just above my old days, and it's a positive story to take from you. If I'm inside, I can protect you, but what do you think?

"Ma, wait! Well, finance is a place where elites from the elite gather, even if they live overnight, right? As far as I'm concerned, it's very..."

He took control of Kota, who spoke so much, with his hands, and Nakatomi continued his words.

"... well, maybe this time it's also a 'political' matter. We talked about whether to leave the man who said 'thank you' until the executive officer of Shijing immediately lowered his head and left him in a general planning position."

"Yes, no! Wait for me! 'Cause I just went to college and lectured, didn't I? It would be hilarious to think that all of a sudden we would be talking about that!

"Where? Look, let's just say the executive officer of a listed company thanked another listed company for lowering his head to the position of general manager, okay? And to a company in a rivalry with the same industry. 'Oh, really,' you think I can leave you alone?

"No, but... but on boulders, that's not a public/private confusion."

"Regardless, the other side is only the body that thanked me as the 'parent of my daughter'. but you think that's what you think in common sense and just say thank you as a 'parent of your daughter'?

"It's..."

"Executive Officer Matsuba is famous for being a cutter, but he is also famous for being so prestigious as to be called an 'ancient samurai'. Selling 'Intangible Grace' here is one hand. As you know, Shii and I collide every time... well, we need some 'cooperation'."

The banking industry is crowded, in warring times. But as in the Warring States, there are alliances.

For example, there is a syndicated loan. Syndicate is a 'syndicate' commonly used in 'crime syndicates', etc. The meaning of the union is close, but syndicates in the banking industry, or syndicates, often refer to 'coordinated lending'.

If the amount is large, banks are reluctant to lend on a single line only from the point of view of risk hedging. On the corporate side, procurement is necessary, and we will talk about 'then burdening the various banks'. Then the chief executive bank, called "Arranger," calls each bank or goes directly out and says, "I'll lend on these terms, so can't you take a bite of it? 'You go around dictating. This is how loans that are lent are referred to as syndicated loans, commonly known as si loans. The chief executive bank requests very cumbersome affairs in order to turn into a company and wrap up the case, but in return - a commission called Arrangement Fee comes in. Although it is a small business because of the project, if you can sum it up, you will be thanked by the company. On top of that, your own loan balance will build up. In addition, if you can sell a favor to another bank looking for a lender, it's a" delicious "project twice or three times in a grain." Si Loan is the best arranger, "so naturally, even local banks are looking for the arranger project.

"I bump into each other in the arranger with Shijing. It's one hand to keep you out of this, isn't it?

"Are you going that easy? Honestly, I don't think we're going."

"I think so, too. However, if there is a corner card, and it is a situation where the card can be cut, and it is not enough card to be taken care of and placed later in life, I personally think it is better to cut it early in the season. Better than not doing it, huh?

"... that's... well, yes"

"So I'm telling you, it makes sense that I went out of my way to tell you this story." Yay, we're moving to the floral line! 'And I could just please you, but you know what it means not to dare?

Kota responds to Zhongtong's words like trying them by shaking his head from left to right.

"Sorry, I don't know"

"The first point is to make sure you know yourself better. Matsuyo, you are certainly a serious and likeable person, but the financial line of the comprehensive plan doesn't work very well in such a 'good one'." I can do it! 'Cause it's hard to be mistaken for a place where people like a chunk of pride come together. "

"That's a mistake. I can't help it."

"I'm relieved of your neighborhood, too, so let's just ask and put the first point to the extent of what you said earlier. Second, I would also like you to remember to refer to the so-called 'belly art'. Honestly, I think you'd rather be here than in finance. Both you and the bank. At first glance, it would seem detrimental to everyone, but nothing that moves, even if it is at the beginning of an argument at your feet. Remember, there are ways to do this, even when you're in my position at some point."

"... What is it, that? Sounds like I'm an executive candidate."

"The financial line of the overall plan is a candidate for executive office. The third point is that. The financial lines of the general plan are those that scrutinize the finances of the banking entity and present them externally at shareholders' meetings and so on. And it's the board of directors and the market that decides to speak at the shareholders' meeting. In other words, the financial line of the overall plan has the opportunity to speak directly with the officer and have him remember his face, name and ability. How many of the many people in the country do you think have the opportunity to speak directly with the officers?

"I don't think there's much."

"That's right. And if it's the same ability, it's human nature that chooses' a good looking person 'when it comes to promotion. If it's" Pretty Guy, "it's even worse."

Are you saying, "Be nice to the officers?"

"I haven't said that much. If you're absolutely confident in your abilities, you don't have to flatter yourself. By the way, for your information, I've never said no to booze seats and golf invited by officers. To his wife and daughter, he said, 'Is it a drink till his birthday? I've been told a lot worse."

"... even the Deputy Director, is it?

"Naturally. Sumitomo's financial line is where people like me sweep and dump them. If you want to be born at all, remember to sell some flair."

With that said, Nakatomi puts Pong and his hand on Kota's shoulder to make him laugh and show again.

"Look, Matsuyo. I can't go inside the finance line. This is a chance. One shot here, cleverly 'enchanted', and the board will not be as dreamy as the chief? When I became an officer, I worked with Director Matsuyoshi, because it was a B thing inside."

"Does the Undersecretary even want to be an officer?

"It'll be a heads-up, I will. It's obvious, isn't it? I kicked BOJ for it."

BOJ is an acronym for Bank of Japan, or Bank of Japan abbreviation.

"... on the boulder. I'm not that upward oriented though"

"That's good, even in dreams. Don't worry. Because if I'm in the head, and you're in the department manager position at that time, I'll do it to the board. I think it's a launching pad for that."

That said, Pong again, and when he slapped on his shoulder, Nakatomi went back with a snort to his seat.

◇◆◇◆◇◆

"There was something about..."

"... what? Are you proud? Are you proud? Is that a challenge to me or something?

"I'm not going to say that - because I'm not going to say that! Don't say five cups alive with momentum! Excuse me, cancel!

While lowering his head to the clerk aloud, Kota glances half-eyed at Ayano, who sometimes sits in a crowded store leaning shoulders against the counter seat on Friday.

"Hmm. Kota is bad. Fine, nothing."

Ayano pointing his mouth like a stubborn one. "It's like kissing" came to mind in that figure, and Kota's heart bounces unexpectedly.

"... you're in middle school, me"

"Talk about what?

"Talk over here. Well, that's what I was told anyway."

"Hmm. Well, good for you. Kota rode the street of birth, that's okay, right?

"You mean the birth street... well, I guess so..."

"Will you use me as your secretary sometime when you become a Matsushiyo executive officer?

"... I've been to HQ and noticed something."

"What?"

"What does a secretary do to have a young, beautiful, well-styled kid? There's a model! I thought he was our secretary."

"... well. Cheng Cheng, no matter how you scratch, you want to sell me a fight? I'll tell you what, huh? The raccoon's status, right?

"What status is it, that? Never heard of it."

Sip a sip of beer like a scratch and get your hands on three types of tuna. Wasabi works spicy and delicious.

"Well, that means flourishing in the floral department, right? Oops. Good for you."

"Uh... thanks?

"Oh, my God, you have a bad tooth. Fine, the birth course."

"No... but? Seriously, what's a financial line? He said he went to graduate school in Yale from East University and took an MBA, and there's a guy like that gobbling around, the finance line. Even if I go in there... hey?

"Really? It has nothing to do with your education in finance, does it?

"That's a foreign investment story, and you're just talking about 'strength complements education', right? I'm not gonna tell you that you don't have to have an education."

"Well, yeah... but there's nothing I can do about that now."

"... you're right."

Shoulder to shoulder as usual and throw in a bite of fried chicken.

"Congratulations anyway! No, my nose would be high if someone came out of my sync that much too! Executive Officer Matsushiyo!

"Quit it, seriously"

That's what I said and waved - Still, Kota is only a little, wrapped up in 'relief'. Not superiority, for relief.

"So? How's it going over there?

Now Ayano says, 'I won'.

I wonder if Ayano will 'turn around' this one because he is more 'above' than Ayano... but realistic 'relief'

Nothing, just like Hota's past girlfriends watching "Hota's Title," Ayano in "Title..." Word is bad, but try to "fish," shallow or miserable, miserable, but very true, such a wish of Hota.

"Especially...... oh yeah! Next time, I'm taking an MBA course."

Ayano Okawa is easy to crush.

"What, an MBA course? What's an MBA course, that MBA course?

"That. The one who goes to American business school and gets an MBA. Well, I've been told to take exams for a long time. In the meantime, I thought I'd take it. I can't beat Kota either."

- Wait, Hota screams in her chest.

An MBA is an abbreviation for an English notation representing a Master of Business Administration, literally a human being who holds a management position in management is a qualification he wants to take and place, and is one of the 'passports of birth', not just residency. That's the same course as the 'boss' on the finance line.

"... that? What's the matter, Kota? Your face is blue, huh?

The only MBA qualification is' passport of birth ', naturally it breaks bones to acquire it. Because it's not easy to get, it's a passport of birth.

- But what if it's Ayano?

What if Ayano, a graduate of Tohoku University, has lived abroad and is a talented woman who manipulates four languages?

"Sooo...... huh. Take it, okay?

"Well, I haven't used much English lately. I think it's a little rusty ~. Dad, they're coming back to Japan next time, so I thought I'd practice a little English. I decided to go to English conversation school too!

- Oh, take it.

Ayano could easily imagine that he would win both MBA courses and business school passes. 'Cause, right? Anyway, it's Ayano. Even if it's normal, it's genius skin, but that genius says' hard work '. A half-breed human being at a height that no matter how much he wishes, still says that he' strives' toward his goal - yes, he says.

"Keep up the good work, all right? I'll laugh when I fall."

"Later. Normally, when that happens, it's like, 'It's okay! Because I'll definitely take it! Aren't you going to say' or something? Well, at that time, you'll have a shame because of Kota's luxury, right? Mochi, if you take it, the celebration!

Ha ha, laughing, Kota pounds the beer. Don't let the roots of your teeth become so conforming that you don't understand the beeping and trembling.

I want you to take it, because, of course, it's true.

But more than that, there was the agony of 'If Ayano received it, he couldn't catch up anymore'. What's the financial line for living overnight? I haven't caught up with anything like that at all compared to Ayano. The difference just opens, and I won't be able to 'get' Ayano for the rest of my life.

"- And Ayano? You're not drinking enough, are you? Look, do something for me."

"... what's the matter, you. That's unusual. What, you want me to compare you to this Ayano? I'll only buy you that bravery."

"Say it. I don't mean it like this."

"... heh. Bye, Hota. As you wish, I'll crush you!

With a good smile: 'Two raw! Asked Ayano sideways,' Kota snapped at the beer left in the jock at once.

- so that you can forget everything... all at once.

◇◆◇◆◇◆

- When you leave yourself to tension, there's nothing loco about it.

"... really, who are you..."

Like a shudder - no, actually shrugged off and sighed, Ayano stares at Kota with his jitsu eyes. That cold ice-like look would reward some world residents, but unfortunately Hota is normal, and if you look at this situation more than that, I'm sorry, I can't say anything anymore, but in the end it is.

"... I am so, so sorry"

Without the help of booze, I'm not going to be able to make a confession. That's what I thought, and Kota drank it from time to time. Drink, drink, drink - and get drunk, sexually harassed, and even miss the end of the electricity and walk home. Ayano smiled as he sighed deeply again at Kota, who apologized for the flat apology.

"Ma, sometimes. Walking home is also a B monster."

That said, hands behind his head, Ayano hangs out and still walks in a quiet residential neighborhood with a firm foothold. I've been up and down all night, and I don't have one kid.

"... hey, Ayano"

"What?

"Um... I'm sorry?

"Fine, nothing. Your bad liquor habits didn't start right now."

Smiles that make you laugh and smile. Honestly, it doesn't mean take it away and beautiful, it doesn't mean take it away and beautiful, cute is cute, but that's what ten or nine people don't look back at, mediocre, such a smile.

Still - my dear, a smile is in front of me.

"... hey"

"What, just now?"

I can't stop now.

"The moon is beautiful, isn't it?

- From there, Kota doesn't remember much. I feel like I've talked about something, and I feel like I've waited silently for an answer. Anyway, in my tempered head, there's only one thing I remember.

"To you...... hey, 'lack of service'?

- Somewhere, the emotion that should have been covered is grinning with a belly.

Look, look, look.

So I told you.

A little while ago, I thought, "I want it."

……

- Oh, well.

- Kota Matsudai said, "Want it," you shouldn't.

◇◆◇◆◇◆

"... hey, Matsuyo. Just one, can I say it?

"What is it?

"Because I'm human, naturally I think there's a surge of tension, and I'm not going to deny it, am I? It would be too different from last Friday to today for a boulder, wouldn't it?

Undersecretary Nakatomi comes across the windy look that he has already given up through the fright. At the end of that gaze were piles of work that seemed to have not progressed at all since morning.

"Uh..."

"Well, I don't have a rush case, and thanks to last week's hard work, I'm free. I don't care if there are days like that..."

Talking that far, Nakatomi stared into Kota's eyes.

"... Something wrong?

"Do I look that way?

"Rather, I think it would be an anomaly if it didn't look that way. I also wondered if I'd step into too much personal privacy... well, for once, I'm a direct superior too. I'm gonna listen to you, okay?

"Nothing… nothing"

"That 'gripping yourself with everything' is your advantage in the sense that you don't run from the problem, but it's a disadvantage in the sense that you don't rely on people. If you don't want to say it, or if it's hard to say it, I wouldn't dare to ask..."

Sometimes it's surprisingly easier if we talk about it, huh? Kota often thinks to Nakatomi that Saying 'I was shaken by a girl' is kind of a disguise, and in the first place, 'That's it, do your job properly!' And it's going to piss me off.

"... really, it's a private matter. I'm sorry, it's a decent job."

"Really? Well, you can't get into work without plenty of privacy. Solve the problem as soon as possible."

"... Deputy Director, by the way. Are you also Deputy Director? That I don't have enough privacy and it affects my job."

"Yes, of course. I don't know about it as a society, but as a human being, it would be natural. Well, the bank… or the banking industry deals with people's money, so I think we should make a better distinction between public and private than other industries, but still."

"Really?"

"By the way, I think your troubles are a woman tangle, correct?

"... face, are you out?

"Workplace relationships, work problems, family problems, money, romance? The troubles are squeezed into these five. Workplaces and jobs will be good, and few people your age have family problems. Plus, if that tension on Friday, it's hard to think of it as a gold problem. The problem with gold is not instant, but lasting. It's a woman by erasure."

"You can be a detective in a deductive novel, Deputy Director"

"If you can be like this, the detective business in the world is out of order. Well, if you're involved with women, there's only two solutions. Either cling or forgetting."

"... are you not dressed badly?

"Love is an ill-dressed thing. Love is blind, right? Me too, to my current wife... well, can we talk about this? Anyway, let's just forget about it and make it your next love."

I smile back at Nakakitori like it's nothing. This is all that bothers me because I can't break it off so easily... well, it's having a negative impact.

"... ok, we'll sort this out as soon as possible. By the way, Deputy Director, this is the case."

"Yeah?... Oh, is that a project from the Product Development Department?

"Yeah, I'm telling the other guy that it's hard to lend a boulder at this rate."

"'I'm going for a thin profit, so I want to go at this rate'?

"It's a shame. He said," Lose it and get it. "

"... well, if it's the rate in the new operation, say ant... but nevertheless. What's the PR line saying?

"Absolutely no if you're going to hit a newspaper ad. You can't pay for it at this rate."

"What about the loan review department?

"Conditional. He said it was a normal destination, and only a high rating destination would do. Just..."

"The Sales Promotion Department disagrees?

"So is the business control department. At least admit it all if it's a normal destination."

If there is nothing special, such as a change in the closing period, companies generally make a statement of accounts once a year. Because of the good and bad financial statements, banks rank companies. "Well, it won't crumble." Ahead of normal, "Kind of sucks, huh? 'Ahead as I said precautionary. Rank even finer ahead of normal,' Absolutely fine! Even if the heavens and the earth flip, it won't crumble! 'The destination will be a high rating among normal destinations.

"... well, that's a good story"

"It's a completely parallel line. I like all the departments. I'm saying it on my own. Are there any words in them that say 'concessions'?

"No, and it's never the wrong attitude for each department to pursue its own interests. You'd like that, wouldn't you?" Make the best effort in a given place. "

"Yes, but... and there's no solution to this. It's totally boiled."

Nakatomi smiles bitterly at Kota, who says so and gives him a flashy look. It's unusual for Kota, and around not saying 'I want to do this,' I assumed she was under a lot of stress. Well, I have no choice.

"If it's boiling, it's fine."

"... Deputy Director?

Kouta turns a serious eye to Nakatomi, who says so in half of his teasing. Shoulder to shoulder with that gaze.

"I didn't say anything disgusting, did I? 'Boiling' is the term used when the debate is ripe for squid candy and it seems to draw conclusions. In your case, you'd be right to be stuck."

"... it's the Department of Economics."

"I'm in law school, though. Well, some people are pretty tough about that. Watch out for misuse. 'Cause, by the way, I was also ashamed of being laughed at in front of an officer."

"I get it. So, Deputy Director." I'm stuck, "he said."

Huh.

"... Matsuyo?

Kota notices.

"Ji, Deputy Director!

"Ugh! What is it, suddenly?

"Undersecretary, are you familiar with misuse or something!

"Ku, familiar? No, nothing that far...... well, what about convicts, sighs, swords with pushers, rain patterns? Later...... oh, that's a lot of 'lack of service'"

"Oh, that! Or lack of service! What do you mean by lack of role! You mean 'not competent enough for the role'!

"Quite the opposite. It's supposed to mean 'role unjustly light on ability'. For example... 'It's not enough for me to be assigned to a financial line!' What if you said, 'Do you only give jobs to the extent of the financial line in my ability? Meaning' - What, Matsuyo? You look so happy."

"Thank you, Deputy Director! I will now negotiate and go with the loan review department to supervise the business and get a compromise somehow!

"Oh, hey, Matsuyo! Hey, hey, hey!

- It was a pleasure.

It was very, very nice to think that maybe Ayano's words were the opposite of what Kota thought.

Regardless, it is quite possible that Ayano did not intend to misuse it, but purely said, 'You will not match me, please'. There is, but there is no doubt that one spider thread drowned in Kota's world, which was still dark.

"... ah. My phone, I forgot."

Two stops from the nearest station at home. Hota remembers leaving the house after she left her cell phone charged and unloaded when she got off at a station close to the bank. After that, I met with the loan review department, talked to the product development department about stuffing, cleaned up the accumulated work, and it was 2: 00 a.m. when I got home. I was wondering if I could call Boulder at that time. You'll never call me after 1: 00 in the morning! Me, it's a bend in your skin! 'There were also Ayano's words, as they were on the floor... embarrassing stories, too excited to sleep, and I have slept with him.

"... here we go"

Call the Marunouchi branch as soon as you get to the bank. You might be pissed off that I took the bank call for personal use... but didn't the deputy director also say that? 'Private enrichment is directly linked to the quality of work'. Then this call is within 'Work'.

Thank you very much.

Be sure to stop by the coffee stand before you go to work to buy coffee and take a bite. Excited and still feeling like coffee bitterness staining his tired head, Kouta meditated his eyes, breathed heavily like breathing morning air and vomited, slowly opening his eyes.

"... you... 'brave man', are you?

- In front of Hota, in that room, which is also likely to come out to some magic school originating in the UK, politely written to the magic formation on the floor, a beautiful girl, clearly in stature, entered her eyes with blonde hair reaching up to her waist.

"... what?

Vision to be clear and thought to be clear. I should have dived the automatic door of the coffee stand in front of the station until just now, but there's a beautiful western-style girl in front of me.

- Oh, I see.

"The... how, what is it?

He was summoned to another world, he was summoned as a brave man, he was called to defeat demon kings and dragons - whatever, but anyway.

"... no"

That's how Kota replies to the words… I consider it inconvenient to introduce myself and want to put words there.

"My name is Kota Matsudai from the General Planning Department of Sumitomo Bank. I think the standards of bravery are vague and depend on what you refer to as brave......"

- Somewhere, the emotions that should have been covered are bursting with tears.

If you're hoping, happy, happy - this is it, isn't it?

So I told you. For what I expected, the recoil would be huge, too.

- Look, I knew it.

- Kota Matsudai said, "Want it," you shouldn't.

"... at least now I'm a 'normal' banker"

There were no tears.
